Assassin’s Creed Revelations details revealed, Altaïr returns

More details about Assassin’s Creed Revelations emerged today. The fourth release in the series proper, Revelations focuses again on Ezio Auditore as he continues his struggle against the Templars, now in Constantinople attempting to undermine the Ottoman Empire, and seeks out five ancient seals to secure the brotherhood’s power. Ezio will have access to new moves and weapons, including the hookblade and the ability to create bombs. He will also run across several historical figures, such as Prince Suleiman (soon to be ‘the Magnificent’), as well as new allies and even a new love interest. Altaïr will also return as a playable character, though no specifics are known. And finally, as previously mentioned, multiplayer will return with new maps, modes, and characters.

Revelations is set to ship this November for the 360, PC, and PS3. Gamers who pre-order at a U.S. GameStop will also receive a limited edition Penny Arcade poster.
